There is no pain or fear in the spirit world

I am re-reading 'Between Death and Life' by Dolores Cannon. A regression client said that we souls are all totally connected and no matter what happens we cannot ever be destroyed. It makes fear seem redundant, yet look at the hold it has on us. We even fear fear!

We are eternal beings, created by God and protected by God. When we come to Earth we experience pain and fear almost daily. This life is a short, very temporary illusion - there is no pain or fear in our real home in the spirit world. A quick dose of Earth, then home.

Of marriage breakups and bullying....

It is hard to speak your truth during stressful, emotionally-charged times. I have two friends who are experiencing big challenges. One is facing the end of her long marriage, and must assert her needs to her partner. The other must confront her manipulative, bullying boss.

I have been through both of those experiences. A marriage breakup is a frightening, lonely place to be. But, as I reassured my friend, there is light at the other side. You must just wade through the fear, one day at a time, until you reach the shore and can be happy again.

Bullying is a pandemic on Earth. My experience of bullying last year shocked me to my core. How can people be so cruel, so unfeeling? I told my other friend that the bullies will face their actions when they return Home. One day, she will forgive them, as I forgave my bullies.

What is your default setting for life?

I have been making daily conscious contact with my soul - through prayer, meditation and reading spiritual literature - for a long time. One of the benefits has been an absence of fear. Years ago, when I woke each morning, fear was waiting: 'What am I to fear today?'

It is said all emotions can be reduced to just two: fear and love. When I have daily contact with my soul I am reminded that love is the Universal energy, and it is freely available to me anytime. I guess I have changed my default setting from fear to love. What is yours?

We attract fear when we are vulnerable

I slept badly last night and lay awake in the early hours obsessing about all sorts of things. When I went for my morning walk I realized that fear was behind the obsessions. When we are hungry, angry, lonely or tired it is easy to succumb to fear. I was very tired.

During my meditation I pictured fear as lots of little 'cling-ons', sticking to me like velcro. The fear 'cling-ons' were attracted to me because of my tiredness; it made me vulnerable. It's another lesson in taking care of the basics: eat, sleep, let go and love.

Embrace your death and become fully alive

I am writing a book about getting comfortable with my death. As I focus on a supposedly heavy, negative subject, something amazing is happening: I am feeling lighter, free and closer to heaven with each passing day. In embracing death I am becoming fully alive.

How is that possible? Death is one of the primal fears. We were born to survive, to fight for our continued existence. When you are willing to meet death head on, that deep-set fear is released. I will use the same strategy to face my injection phobia. Wish me luck!
